Awfully difficult to look past Secret Circle here but you will be lucky to get 2-1 for him. Colts still developing here in March so there could be surprises here and I'm thinking maybe Asmussen's duo can hit the board here. Channing Hill has been put on #2 Unbridled's Note and I think they want the lead here, it worked for debut race against quality field.
exacta 8/2,9 and 1 unit 2/8
If any horse can beat the fav it's #7 Sabrecat. Since he will not be at big odds will box those 2 on top in tri and key with others on top in $.10 supers.
Baffert is killing them everywhere and Secret Circle is a major Derby threat. He ran down a dead game Scatman and clearly the best, Lukas horse Optimizer snuck up late for second.
Scatman is a quality horse but probably not for Tricple Crown races.
Bejerano and Circle got the job done, so hats off to them, but major derby threat I think not. Hopefully we see him back in the Ark, then we will have a clearer picture on his derby chances.
